Joe Klein, stupid comment on CNN just now....

[NRaleighLiberal]

said that the Democrats are at an advantage by coming up with absolutely no ideas on what to do with Iraq. But guess what - who is in charge? Who has the presidency? Senate? House? Judiciary? Ding Ding Ding - yes! The Repugs! After the election in two weeks, guess what? The Pugs STILL have the presidency and the judiciary. It is not up to the Democrats to have the manadatory answer for Iraq! They are not in charge! And....the Dems have floated plenty of alternatives (including ones that the idiot in charge and his cronies are now stating as a brilliant idea of their own)....that is where media complicity comes in.

What a thoroughly incredible mess this all is. If I hear one more time that the Democrats are coming to the table with nothing.....I will self destruct!

1. We couldn't pass our plan if we wanted to. And besides,

I thought that the Dem plan was "Cut and run"... According to the Republicans.

So, even by their own lies, the Dems have a plan. Cut our losses, get our troops out, get the UN in. And that's the ATTACKS the GOP uses against us.

Saying we have no plan is more dishonest than most GOP talking points, and that is really saying alot.

But, that's the spin.

We will never really get our message out as long as conservative fucks control the media

2. I heard it! What an a** he is.

Or, he has another agenda. He has to know something of what has been going on in Washington. He follows Kerry becasue he doesn't like him, just to criticize him, so he has to know kerry and Feingold introduced an amendment in June that layed out a detailed plan for changing course and winning the war on terror. Other Democrats came up with a watered down plan, but a plan none the less. What a self important jerk.

3. Klein is a hairy elephant's ass...

And what comes out of his mouth is the same as what comes out of a hairy elephant's ass.

4. Joe Klein might be right

For many years the Rethuglicans have been in office copying the ideas of the Democrats. The way it works is this: Democrats come up with a viable idea or a program or a bill that will solve the problem on the table. The rethuglicans say, heck no we can't do that! Those dumb liberals thought of it so it must be wrong. So the Democrats put their tails in between their legs and slink off, upset because they're not liked by everyone.

As soon as they go away, the thugs STEAL THE IDEA AND RUN WITH IT CALLING IT THEIR OWN.

The Dems have never called them on this because they are just happy the idea was accepted and put into law.

But this has caused the entire populace to loose respect for Democrats. Of course the insider Rethugs KNOW they don't know how to run a government, they don't know how to write a law, they don't know their Constitution (so how can they swear to defend it?) so they NEED Democrats around for "answers"... Rethugs have Democrats bully whipped into shape.

At this time, the Dems have FINALLY FINALLY LISTENED to their base and they are not giving them the answers. You see, the voters can't tell who is competent and who is not if the rethuglicans are allowed to pick our brains like this. It is good for them to get hoisted on their own petard. They don't deserve any answers. This method has given them the cream without having to buy the cow.

The only option rethugs have is to holler and scream... and they're doing that.

If the nation wants the RIGHT ANSWERS TO SOLVE THE PROBLEMS THEY SHOULD VOTE THE DEMOCRATS BACK ONTO POWER. Simple as that.

Rethugs are bullies and dummies and they don't know how to do anything but push people around and connive to steal what they want.

They're rotten to the core.
